10 Things We Learned From WWE’s Undertaker: The Last Ride (Final Chapter)
2. His Brother Died Right Before WWE's 'Boneyard' Shoot
WhatCulture were lucky enough to get some juicy scoops on what happened when WWE filmed WrestleMania 36's 'Boneyard' battle between 'Taker and AJ Styles, so a lot of what was aired here was hardly breaking news to anyone who read that exclusive. However, that didn't cover the trauma that was going on in Calaway's personal life at the time.
He lost his brother Tim mere hours before shooting the cinematic brawl.
'Taker was in a car with Triple H and Michael Hayes, heading back to the PC from the 'Boneyard' location, when his niece called and informed him that his brother Tim had died of a heart attack. That news obviously hit the man hard, and things were further complicated by the fact he had to break the sad news to his other siblings and his distraught mother.
Worse, the 'Boneyard' match centred around somebody being buried. This seriously distressing time was made even more painful when Michelle McCool's nephew passed away following a nasty car accident the very next week.
